Apprenticeships

A university education isn’t for everyone- some people want to get out there and start working and earning straight away. Here you can obtain highly sought after qualifications, alongside a salaried career and invaluable experience in a commercial environment. This is an exciting opportunity to join a dynamic and innovative global law firm as a paralegal apprentice in either its Birmingham or London office. Opportunities exist across a range of different legal practice areas including real estate, banking, construction and litigation. The Paralegal trailblazer apprenticeship is 2 years induration and your academic and competency training will be through CILEx Law School which has long established links with the legal sector. Following on from successful completion of this apprenticeship there may be the opportunity for progression onto Chartered Legal Executive or Solicitor apprenticeship training.
